Tang Xiao's heart skipped a beat.

He seldom asked about his father's company affairs, and he didn't even know what kind of business the other companies operated and how profitable they were except for Xingge Media where he worked.It is even more impossible to know about his father and the Lu Group.But he still knows the industry's evaluation of Tang Xingquan.

Iron-blooded tycoon, galloping in the business world for more than [-] years, he is merciless in attacking competitors, and takes vicious and tough shots.

"Are they... vicious competition?" Tang Xiao asked with a frown.

Liang Zhe was stunned for a moment, then smiled and poked Tang Xiao's shoulder: "Why, it's been a long time since you've been filming, and you're wearing the halo of the Holy Father?"

Tang Xiao forced a smile: "No, just ask."

Liang Zhe clicked his tongue, and took another puff of smoke: "I don't know the specific method, I guess it's quite ruthless. But in the business world, it's either you die or I live. It is said that this time our father and I will join forces and do it The Lu family's vitality was seriously injured, the capital chain was almost broken, and the media said that Chairman Ming...that is, Lu Cheng's mother, was so anxious that he was about to jump off the building..."

Tang Xiao didn't listen to what Liang Zhe said later.He remembered that he had heard someone say by chance before that the reason why Lu Cheng accepted "Looking at the Light" was because of the super high salary of this movie.

He didn't take it seriously at the time: Lu Cheng is a film king at the top, and if he lacks anything, he won't be short of money.According to his character design, even if he pays a 9-figure salary, he will not accept double male leads.

Now, he understands.

Tang Xiao clenched his fingers, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.

After entering the box of the clubhouse, there were two acquaintances sitting on the sofa.One is Wang Tu and the other is Guan Jingtian, who are also classmates. When they had spare time, they often got together.

Seeing Tang Xiao coming in, the two immediately stood up.

"Hey, let me see who this is. We haven't seen each other for half a century, right?" Wang Tu went around the table and hugged Tang Xiao.

"If I had known that the big star was coming today, I would have called my girlfriend along. She pestered me every day to ask for your autographed photo." Guan Jingtian tutted and walked over.

"Hey, Lao Guan, you're fine. Your girlfriend can go back with you that night after seeing Xiao Xiao."

Several people teased Tang Xiao for a long time, complaining that he patronized the fire and forgot all the years of brotherhood.Counting that they hadn't met for more than half a year, Tang Xiao poured himself a full glass of wine with a smile and punished himself with three glasses.When the last glass was empty, he turned the glass upside down for everyone to see.Sincerity and apology are in the wine.

"Hey, three glasses are not enough." Wang Tu took the wine bottle and stood up, "I have to drink three more glasses." After speaking, he was about to lean over to pour the wine.

Tang Xiao quickly put the cup on his mouth, and begged for mercy: "It can't be done. Brother Tu, I have to film tomorrow. I'm not in good condition, the director must kill me."

"Stop coming." Wang Tu patted the back of Tang Xiao's hand, "If your director dares to insult you, our dad must not overthrow his crew."

"That's necessary." Liang Zhe nodded suddenly, and gave a thumbs up, "Who is our father? Such an awesome Lu family almost fell to the ground, and a little director can forget about it."

Tang Xiao's body froze suddenly, and the fingers holding the wine glass slipped.

Liang Zhe and the others didn't notice his strangeness, and continued to grab a glass to pour him wine.Tang Xiao hid the wine glass behind his back: "I really can't drink anymore. I have to go to the outer suburbs to shoot early tomorrow morning. I can't get disconnected."

"Hey, you have such a handsome face, and you have a large number of fans contributing to the box office after just a few performances, so what are you doing seriously?" Wang Tu said disapprovingly.

"This time, I really can't just rely on my face. The other male lead is too hardcore, so I can't make too much difference." Tang Xiao explained solemnly.

"Isn't that the one with the surname Lu? Hey, Xiaoxiao, I'll give you a tip. You should drink more tonight. I'll make a hundred or so NG messages tomorrow. If you see it, you won't be able to beat him to death..."

With three black lines on Tang Xiao's forehead, he waved his hands again and again: "If that's the case, I guess I'll die before him."

Just kidding, if he says he won't drink wine, he won't drink it.He knew what he should do and what he shouldn't do. He was afraid that his buddies would be unhappy, so he deliberately added, "This time, the masters will spare me first. On my birthday, I will invite everyone to drink and let go If you open it and drink it, I will accept it no matter how you pour it.”

Tang Xiao didn't drink, so naturally he had less chance to joke with them, but he was not in the mood today, lazily leaning on the sofa, watching the other three people spat at each other.

Later, Wang Tu and Guan Jingtian went to the toilet to drain the water together. Liang Zhe came over, bent down and raised his arms, shaking in front of his eyes: "Xiaoxiao, are you okay, I feel like you are absent-minded today."

Tang Xiao was stunned for a moment, and pulled back the thoughts that had just drifted away: "It's okay, but I'm a little tired from filming."

"Is it because you are tired?" Liang Zhe sat beside him and sighed, "I have to face your most annoying film king and bully king all day long, and I am also forced to make intimate scenes. If I were you, I would be depressed Gotta vomit blood."

Tang Xiao glanced at Liang Zhe and twitched the corner of his mouth.If he had played it before, he would have kept up with the rhythm and sprayed Lu Cheng with a few words, but today, when he heard the phrase "force the king", he felt inexplicably harsh and uncomfortable.

"Actually, Lu Cheng...it's okay." He lowered his eyes and rubbed his ears, "It's not that...pretentious."

Liang Zhe was silent for two seconds, then suddenly grabbed his hand and exclaimed: "Xiaoxiao, you must have been seduced by someone surnamed Lu. You have hated him for so many years, and you have only been filming for a few days. The original intention is not firm anymore. Hey, that interview video of yours is so nasty, those sugar deer licked the powdered sugar, and showed your marriage certificate..."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, it's all business." Tang Xiao looked away, and quickly interrupted Liang Zhe, his face was hot, and his elbow accidentally knocked over the wine glass, spilling the wine on the coffee table.

He hurriedly got up, picked up the wine glass, tore a few pieces of paper and threw them on the tea table, after a frantic toss, Tang Xiao poured a glass of ice water and poured it down.

Liang Zhe looked at him with his mouth half open: "You didn't drink much tonight, why do you seem drunk?"

Tang Xiao didn't answer. After a while, he raised his eyelids and asked in a low voice, "Azhe, you just said that our father almost brought down the Lu family. Is this true?"

"Of course. I saw the two of them colluding with each other with my own eyes. No, it's a strong alliance." Liang Zhe patted his thigh, "If Lu Cheng hadn't stepped up at a critical moment to fill the funding gap this time, the Lu family would have already It's cold. Hahaha..."

Tang Xiao didn't smile, his stomach felt empty for a while, and the discomfort in his heart became more intense.

Liang Zhe propped his elbows on his thighs, and scraped his chin with his thumb: "Hey, Xiaoxiao, didn't you hate Lu Cheng the most before, why didn't you feel excited at all when you heard such a great deal?"

"I..." Tang Xiao froze for a moment, but didn't answer.

He can't get excited.

Not only that, but there is also a trace of indescribable feeling in my heart, I don't know if it is sympathy, intolerance, sadness, or uneasiness...

After the party was over, Tang Xiao called the driver to pick him up and take him back to the hotel.The phone vibrated in his pocket, it was a message from the crew's WeChat group.

[Director Han: @Everyone: The filming location tomorrow and the day after tomorrow is in Sun Village.Set off at 8:40 in the morning. 】

[Director Han: @Lucheng, is the injury on your hand serious? 】

[Lu Cheng: It's okay, thank you director. 】

[Director Han: Okay, let's go to bed early. 】

Tang Xiao stared at these lines for a few seconds, and involuntarily entered Lu Cheng's WeChat avatar. However, after trying several times, he was still reluctant to add the other party as a friend.

After logging out of WeChat, he rested his chin and stared out of the window. As the car drove through the city, the brightly lit pharmacy on the corner of the street flashed by in front of his eyes.

Tang Xiao's eyes lit up, and he sat up straight suddenly: "Wait, stop for a moment."

The driver quickly turned and stopped on the side of the road.

"I'm going to buy something." Tang Xiao said as he put on his hat and mask, and ran towards the pharmacy.

At the door of room 1111, Tang Xiao held the band-aid, spray and iodophor that he had just bought, struggled for several minutes, and finally rang the doorbell.Although doing so would damage his character, but if he didn't do it, his conscience would hurt.

The doorbell rang several times but no one opened it.

Tang Xiao raised his eyebrows, feeling a little happy.In the afternoon, when Lu Cheng said that he had something to do tonight, he thought it was an excuse to politely refuse.

It turned out that something was really wrong with him.

Tang Xiao whistled, hung the packaging bag containing the medicine on the doorknob, thought for a while, felt unsafe, and took it off again.

After hanging and picking, picking and hanging, and repeating it several times, he felt that he was about to be dazed.

At this moment, a deep man's voice suddenly came from behind: "It's so late, what do you want me to do?"
